Current Status

We are building the wider field of AoH India (including activities that showcase/offer AoH techniques in smaller formats as well as future AoH trainings). The intended AoH Bangalore training (planned for early September 2013) was postponed indefinitely as part of our learning around the challenges of preparing a full training in a region where the field is not yet strong yet the desire acute.

Regular skype calls aimed at building the wider field once a month. Dates are published on the Calendar of Events page and offered on-demand so please get in touch! The aim is to offer those interested with a venue to voice their opinions and ideas and to support initiatives promoting AoH-style ideas on the ground.

The 1st AoH India training is planned for this summer. Throughout the past months of conference calls a number of reflections have been shared onWhat makes a powerful calling question for India?I…Continue

Hi Carlos. Welcome to this group and for bringing some new energy to the conversation. I spent three months in India with the intention of exploring what wants to happen there and of seeding the field for Art of Hosting. I discovered a lot of interest and many collaborative/participatory practitioners, most of whom are working in relative isolation, some of whom are familiar with AoH and others who are quite interested in learning. I sense that there are seeds germinating in various places in India and I am continuing to wait for a clear call.

I will likely be back in India in September, perhaps for a few months to tend the field and to hopefully connect some of the practitioners and to work with what wants to emerge. One of the biggest learnings for me in India is the importance of patience and trusting the emergent process. Continually, I was reminded that I need to wait for an invitation to let go of my arrogant belief that I have something that "they" need.

I would love to connect with you, either by email or Skype and to explore possibilities for the time we will be in India.

I think that an AoH training in India is a great thing. I was in India in the beginning of this year and know a few people to whom I could spread the invite. They live in Bangalore. They work here: http://www.thegreenpath.in/

Let me know once this becomes relevant, then I am happy to contribute in this way.

It is so exciting... to me it feels like a wonderful next step from our AoH Budapest in 2010 when natasha ( and Lamu ) came from that part of the Globe...and because since then I talked a lot to the SoL frineds in bangalore about this process and perhaps we can assist to the emergence of this process there...I certainly am IN...
